VERY GOOD START TO MORODER MUSIC

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I first heard "From Here To Eternity" on TV on the cable station A & E which was airing a show about disco back in 1993 and REALLY loved the song. There apparently is also a video to accompany this song. Too bad I never got to hear this song when it was out back around 1978. I did hear "Chase" played a few times on the radio back in late '78 ,early 1979 & they even used it during 1979's superbowl or else on one of the games leading up to it. It wasn't until over 5 years later when someone told me who the artist was that made "Chase."

I think this is a good cd and I even like "Looky Looky" which sounds like a 1960s folk music song. Some of the 1980s songs lost the strange, mesmerizing sound of Giorgio and I don't like E=MC2 at all because it sounds dated and too simple of a song even for 1979. A few songs on the album From Here To Eternity are basically good songs but slightly ruined by sounds that belonged on cartoons and are annoying. The backup female singers are really good on Giorgio's songs.



Too bad most people didn't get to hear this music even though they were teens and young adults during Giorgio's most successful days. Even back then, radio programmers were deciding what was/wasn't cool for people to hear and people lose out on hearing cool music big time because of this. I think Giorgio went for the money by working in Hollywood after Flashdance and by working with Blondie. Unfortunately Hollywood is where the money seems to be and there isn't enough money involved in making music so the end result is there is no good music to be heard unless you spend hours looking for it on the internet.



Too much electronic & new wave music got dismissed as not being "real" but it sounded good and that's the bottom line not whether someone uses a "real" guitar or bass or drums who makes music that sounds like crap.



Again most of us didn't get to hear Giorgio on the radio because programmers decided Pink Floyd & the Eagles were what young men needed to hear back then-no thanks.

"This album is missing one of his best song, but not the most popular unfortunately and so rare and hard to find on single 45, the title is LET THE MUSIC PLAY... what a shame it's not here :-(



Oh well"
